About Golf Fore the Cure
Golf Fore the Cure was created by Golf Canada to drive women’s participation in the game of golf. By partnering with the Canadian Cancer Society, we have also added awareness and fundraising components to support the fight against breast cancer.
Golf Fore the Cure is all about using the sheer power of women playing the game of golf to make a difference. This is the chance for volunteers across the country to help raise money and assist in a very worthy cause that is close to many women across the country – the fight against breast cancer.
Golf Canada developed this innovative program to allow women to participate with old friends and new friends alike. Even if you are not a golfer there are ways to get involved. Be a part of this cause- be a participant, be a site organizer, help make a difference!!
